Exosite CTO Mark Benson to Present at Connected World

Exosite, a leading provider in the Internet of Things (IoT) platform market, today announced that CTO Mark Benson will co-present at the Connected World show on September 9 at the Marriott Del Mar Hotel in San Diego. Sponsored by the Peggy Smedley Institute, Connected World offers education for enterprise leaders on several IoT topics, with an emphasis on smart cities, energy, transportation, mobility, retail, manufacturing and engineering.
 
Benson will co-present with David McLauchlan, CEO of Buddy, on “The Rise of Platforms in the IoT,” at 11:05 a.m. The joint presentation will address the challenges that manufacturers face as they begin to create connected products and evaluate the flurry of IoT platform technologies available. With the IoT industry still in its infancy, few platforms can claim to be proven solutions and many lack security guarantees, scalability capabilities and flexible interfaces. Benson and McLauchlan will explain the benefits of developing connected products using an IoT platform and outline the top four considerations when evaluating IoT platforms.
